Hi, I noticed with the new SonicStage 2.0 a codec was included allowing atrac files to be opened in Windows Media Player. Is there such a codec for winamp? Thanks PS - Does anyone know the answer to my previous Q about atrac3 versus atrac3plus?

When encoding your mp3s to Atrac3/Plus format, which format renders the better quality?? I know there are different bit rates: Atrac3 132, 105, 66 Atrac3plus 256, 64, 48 Obviously the Atrac3plus at 256 must be better quality but the file size is 2X Atrac3 at 132? So higher bit rate means better quality, but how can you compare bit rates of different formats, ie. is Atrac3plus at 63 comparable to Atrac3 at 132??? Very confusing....why don't they have an Atrac3 at 132 anf an Atrac3plus at 132....then it would be easy to choose a format. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
